I too had the hanging S meter problem.  A master reset solved  it.

After a  computer reboot, it worked to completion, must have been a local 
gremlin -  I am admittedly making life a bit difficult for myself, I'm 
running WinXP  in a Virtual machine (VirtualBox) on Ubuntu Linux (I don't 
own a natively  running Windows machine) and using an USB->Serial adapter 
to connect to  the Orion!

My S-meter was staying at around S8 after the update, but a  Master Reset 
fixed that (kept user memories and optional filter  settings).

Further reports will come after I gain a little experience  with the update.
